The group who worked in all aspects of the industry including mobile operators, technology startups, mobile handset manufacturers, media companies and digital agencies, shared their love of powder skiing in the intimate setting of one of the world’s leading small boutique heliski operations. We spent three days heli skiing a combination of the Monashees’ incredible tree skiing combined with their glacial bowls, when the sun was out and it wasn’t snowing. The pictures speak for themselves, don’t you think?

There’s snow in ‘them there hills’ as they say. The term “Gold Rush” usually evokes visions of western movies, cowboys and people arriving in droves in former times to make their fortunes. However, we’ve discovered a different type of gold rush happening in interior BC Canada, where we’ve spent the last two weeks heli and resort skiing, and meeting locals, tourists, resort property owners, and business owners. It’s an influx reminiscent of gold rushes of yesteryears as all have traveled or settled here for the same reason: to seek and exploit the deep, dry, ‘white gold’, that’s pictured here in this recent photo taken by our Northern BC operator. Proving this year again, Canada is the home of ‘Cold Smoke’, having experienced more La Niña effects this year, thus bringing the white gold to those fortunate enough to be here.

Isolated European locations, breathtaking views, fine foods and total immersion in skiing or snowboarding – all this in your choice of degree of luxury. That is what the latest heli-lodge in France offers you. Total Heliski gives you the opportunity to take an inside look into our French operators new heli lodge, a long awaited offering North American style, but with the flair of the Alps.

Total Heliski Operators have come to the party!

Our operators were on the whole not able to attend the Total Heliski Show on November 3rd, that’s why we represent them. However, they have generously offered a number of offers to be given exclusively to Total Heliski Show attendees by Total Heliski. As follows:

What’s the draw of skiing when everyone else is surfing this summer? Skiing in South America and particularly in Chile is an amazing experience, especially when you combine it with the rich Chilean hospitality and culture. Also, not to mention the wonderful wines which are famous from this region!

The London Total Heliski Show was such a success, and there were so many who couldn’t make it, that we’ve been asked when will we be holding our next event?
